Minikube is great for having a Kubernetes cluster as local Docker development environment. In a development workflow you probably have source code on your host machine and it would be great if the Docker containers in the Kubernetes cluster could mount this. So changes made to the code can be tested and are visible quickly. The steps on this blog post are tested with Minikube version v0.28.0.

Mounting is possible for example with:

minikube start --mount --mount-string ./sources:/sources

And by using hostPath in the volume.
